Fort Collins Public Media

Bulletin Board

Community notices, calls for collaborators, and gear for sale.

This page needs a decision before it can be built. The current version renders entirely inside a Wix widget and could not be read programmatically, so its content is unknown to this scaffold. It is also one of the pages reported as slow to load.

Two ways to do this

As data. A _data/bulletin.yml file with a title, body, contact, and posted date per notice, rendered as a list. Someone edits the file and the site rebuilds. Simple, fast, no third party — but every posting goes through whoever has repository access.

As submissions. A form writes to a SharePoint list in Microsoft 365, a board member approves, and the build pulls approved rows at publish time. More moving parts, but the community can post without a maintainer in the loop.

The right answer depends on how many notices actually go up per month. If it’s a handful a year, the first option is correct and the second is over-building.
